The backcountry ski tour around the mountain ‘peaks’ of Ísafjörður
Come skiing on our beautiful mountains surrounding, Ísafjörður. We’ll show you the best lines, couloirs, and approaches right from our doorstep. Enjoy the unique feeling of skiing while enjoying panoramic views of exciting fjords and the open sea. We like playing outside in the cold and crispy days of winter and we invite you to come along.
We had a custom 4 day ski touring/guided trip based out of Isafjordur. Our guide was a local and very knowledgeable about the area and skilled in backcountry skiing/avalanche safety. Given the variability of snow conditions, he had scouted out the potential hills for us to climb prior to our arrival to 1) ensure our safety, 2) provide amazing views and 3) have a fun ski down. He knew the mountains and local lore well which made the trip more fun. He sustained a minor injury during one of our ski days , and Borea had another guide available to continue our day within 1.5 hours of the call. We appreciated their flexibility and coverage by their team during the entire trip. The trip exceeded our expectations and we would recommend Borea for winter adventures and hope to come back for some summer adventures in Isafjordur soon!
